>>>>雅思口语高频语料
雅思口语机经里，toy这个话题也算是经久不衰了，从雅思口语题库里被踢出去又回来，反反复复好多年。不过大家不要怕，这道题总体说来就是满满的套路啊!需要谈及的方面说来说去就那么几个，比如怎么得到的，长啥样，为啥喜欢，最后这个玩具的下落，Blah blah blah……
最常见的小孩子的玩具，大家可以从下面几个挑选在雅思口语里发挥，不会讲的就绕过，不要自己难为自己嘛对不对，毕竟这是考试不是真心话大冒险。女孩子可以选择Barbie doll(芭比娃娃)，rag doll(布偶)，puppet(木偶)，teddy bear(泰迪熊)之类的各种soft toy(毛绒玩具)，Lego之类的bricks(积木)，jigsaw puzzles(拼图)等等，男孩子一般玩耍的就是各种toy cars，toy soldiers和toy guns(包括water gun呲水枪)，还有各种ball，或者比较贵一些的action figures(手办)例如transformers或者toy vehicles with a remote control(遥控汽车飞机等等)，mini four by four(四驱车)。
选定了玩具，就要说说这个玩具是怎么来的啦，对于小孩子来说，最常见的玩具来源就是爸妈送的呗。这个场合可以是birthday gift，也可以作为考出好成绩的reward，这毕竟是父母常用的套路么。
Anyway，剩下的重点是你为啥喜欢这个toy，并且是怎么跟它玩耍的。这个建议大家结合自己的兴趣爱好来解释，比如看了哪部电影或者剧集，幻想着自己是里面的人物(听起来耳熟吧，我们小时候肯定都玩儿过role-playing game)，或者玩儿play house(过家家)，也可以说父母忙没时间陪我们玩耍，我们就把所有的开心不开心都share给了我们的娃娃。总之，一个惯用套路是，“玩具是最好的陪伴”，因为它陪伴我们度过了无忧无虑的童年，所以它才means a lot to us.
最后的最后，说说玩具的下落吧，你可以说虽然它现在很破旧了(shabby)，但是我还是留着它，或者说搬家时候弄丢了(I lost it when I moved to our new apartment)，或者长大之后妈妈给送人了(gave them away)。
OK，这个就是常见的套路，按照这个流程来说，起码不会三句话自后就跟考官四目相望啦，下面是参考素材，大家可以根据自己的爱好改编起来：
When I was little, my favorite toy is a toy gun I got from my dad as my 10th birthday gift.
It was just an ordinary gun for kids, with a black case. It was about this big, and color of the trigger is silver, which was really cool. The most awesome thing about this gun was that every time I pull the trigger, it would make a sound of gunshots, so you know, it felt like I really fired a bullet.
I was crazy about gangster movies back then, and I thought policemen are the coolest people in the whole wide world. They beat bad guys and uphold justice, so deep in my heart, I believe they are the symbols of superheroes. And I’ve always wanted to be a policeman, which I guess is most boys’ childhood dream. Even now, when I watch a movie involving cops fighting against criminals, I would become hot-blooded.
So you can imagine how excited I was when my father gave it to me. I used to carry it around with me everywhere I go, and when I got the opportunity, I would show it off to my friends. And when I hung out with my neighbors playing cops and robbers, I would call dibs on the role of the cop, and chase others around, which sounds a little silly now, but I really enjoyed that feeling back then.
However, sadly, after I attended junior high school, my mom gave away all of my childhood toys to my cousin, including that toy gun. I was heartbroken for a while, ‘cause that toy has given me quite a few precious memories.
最后嘱咐一下下，大家千万要记住，比较复杂的function或者appearance，大家不要过于纠结，在考场上大家发挥出来的肯定是自己最熟悉最有安全感的表达，所以即使在有限的备考时间内，你准备了炫酷的长篇大论，但是如果没有真正做到熟练掌握的话，在考场上的输出反而会给考官很生硬的“背诵感”，就适得其反了。
